Thanks to the away victory over Bayer (2: 1), Lokomotiv was able to interrupt the 17-year-old streak without winning away at the main stage of the Champions League. The last time the “railroad” beat the opponent in his den in 2002, when they managed to defeat “Galatasaray” (2: 1).

After the first round, Lokomotiv leads Group D with three points. In the second round of the group round, the team of Yuri Semin will play with Atletico Madrid.

Kiknadze said earlier that the victory over Bayer is only the beginning for Lokomotiv in this Champions League.
